Drifting Low Power + The Right Setup can still Shred!
Welcome to my drift build. The vehicle is a 323i BMW E46 with an M52 engine.
In this video I head back to #queenslandraceway to get my drift licence to be able to run on the main track.
The event is hosted by #skidcontrol who seem to run like a well oiled machine when it comes to events. The Bimmer ran flawlessly and I was able to dial it in only by adjusting tyre pressures.
Nothing major broke, and fun was had.

    ive been driving on maXpeedingRods for some months now (the gold/yellowish painted ones). I have the dampers set on the softest setting. It's a different ride than the OEM struts/shocks. I find the ride to be a little stiff still. One of the rear dampers arrived to me leaking. Right before I was about to email them about the issue, they emailed me first! Asking if there's any issue. Told them and they sent out a replacement damper. When I went to install the front coilovers, i found out that the hole the top bolt goes into was too small. I notified them, and gave them the dimensions of the hole size. They had their fabricator or whoever make a two new metal pieces with the bigger hole, however it took weeks before it was finally done .

    From watching other videos people said that inline setups tend to make the pedal brakes more unreliable. Have you ran into problems like that? The looks of a single caliper peases me more than having a double caliper. And the cost of install and parts increases a fair bit too.

    You’re looking much better than your last event! I got a 323ci and started practicing but sadly the transmission blew out. I bought a new one from a junkyard but now I need help with the flywheel and clutch kit. I was looking at a kit from Luk and one from Valeo. For the flywheel I’ve read that dual mass is best for when you’re starting to learn. Thoughts/suggestions before I full send it on parts?

    • @BertusBuilds
      @BertusBuilds 2 месяца назад

      That sux. On a getrag I’m guessing. I’ve never liked dual mass. When I used to be in a shop they were costly and problematic. Seem unnecessary for track use. They are smoother for day to day use but I don’t know maybe they’re better options these days.

    • @pablowakapra
      @pablowakapra 2 месяца назад

      @@BertusBuilds Yes, getrag 5 speed. I decided to go with the dual mass option after all. Mainly because I still need to work on the cooling system and didn’t want to put more stress on the engine with a single mass conversion. Time will tell if it was the right choice. Appreciate the reply and keep it up!

  • @FaworDrifts
    @FaworDrifts 2 месяца назад

    Few pointers from my perspective. setup wise 1. Front suspension too soft. 2. Lock kit combined with wheels rubbing, what makes the car unpredictable lottery, cause rubbing makes A LOT. Driver wise: 1. You have some short diff I think so on 2nd you are not underpowered anymore. You should start to work with the throttle,not just be pinned. 2. Lift the throttle AFTER or at least durning the transsison, not before. Lifting before makes a lot more snap, which going back to your too soft, rubbing and too less grip front disturb you to be conistent and smooth even more. Other then that - car looks good in drift 🙂 if you implement all above you will be ready for tandems

    • @BertusBuilds
      @BertusBuilds 2 месяца назад

      Mate that is the most constructive feedback I’ve had. Thank you. 🙏 The rubbing is definitely an issue I wanted to tackle before my next event. I have no Swaybar in the front. Do you think it’s too soft bodyroll or overall. I bought it with no Swaybar but did want to put one back on.

    • @FaworDrifts
      @FaworDrifts 2 месяца назад

      @@BertusBuilds I like a lot to analyse people setups and driving - this is how I learned a bit how to drive and change in my car what I feel I need 🙂 When you don't have front bar it is overall good and bad in two cases. good cause it will reduce the body roll and maybe will help enough without stiffening the spring rates. It will make the transissons lot smoother. Bad cause bar reduces grip. So I would for sure add some bar (not even purpously big,just some stock 6cyl) but at the same time you have to change your front to tires to some proper quality, more sticky ones. Make this changes + some overfenders to not rub. Then test 🙂If you want we can analyse next events further, drive and check. Maybe it will be enough. Hope that will help 🙂

Nothing crazy, maybe 1 droplet of oil overnight, but it pisses me off that it's only gonna get worse. I wanted to put rtv but decided against it because since the tranny also bolts to the oil pan, without the metal gasket it would move the tranny bolt holes. But it couldn't have been more than like 2mm so maybe they would still have fit. Just saying rtv doesn't go bad like those god awful gaskets bmw engineers pull out from the depths of hell.
